ABOUT ME

I love to travel. I studied Natural Resource Recreation and Tourism and want to combine it with environmental science. Eco-tourism.. I have been a special type of firefighter called a Hotshot for the last 3 years and I am fortunate to travel a lot when I am not working.
I enjoy adventures and like to get off the beaten path.

Pura Vida!
